Thomas Donald Plenderleith made atmospheric scenes of everyday places at night. In 1957 he printed *Fairground at Night*, a quiet, glowing view of rides and stalls under bright electric lights. The scene feels still, like the moment after the crowd has gone home. Look for the striped tents and the way the lamplight pools on the wet ground. Next, tap into the printed texture of the night scene itself.
